Part 2 : Faithful characters
HIF: Andy, even though he is propositioned many times, remains faithful to Gene
wow, what a great conclusion!
Ugh
(view spoiler)[ that phone ring at the end. I really really hope that's his mom accepting him!!
and wow, that Edward was going to marry Ginny! such a surprise!
i was so glad they got Hank out and that everyone else they managed to save was doing better!
Interesting that Daphne also was just deciding the hiding was too much.
I was also glad that Vera stepped up and took care of the men they got out!
and I really thought the party would be over the top and Andy would hate it so I was glad when it was low-key and so cute! I loved his birthday party! (hide spoiler)]
15 chapters (stopped at 16)
YES
(view spoiler)[ I'm so sad that Andy had to resort to that but he really couldn't leave Hank in there. How could you do that to someone you love?!?! I'm glad the bikers help
and I really do hope his mom figures it out and finds a way to accept him anyway
and wow - yep, I thought Vera might be dealing.
but what happened then? (hide spoiler)]
through 10 chapters (stopped at 11)
I agree, I love Andy so much! I hate that he's struggling
(view spoiler)[ I agree - now that we've met the mom and she's not just a voice, I wonder if Andy could start laying the groundwork for it being Gene - but now that he's lied. . .yikes, I'm not sure
I do wonder if the other missing guy is IN the facility. that's why the other guy is staying with family and going their.
but where is daphne
and it still sucks he got forced into another investigation. . .I'm not sure there is a win in this one
OOOOH and the guy scared about him - from the pharmacy. Is vera dealing drugs? is she forcing others to? is THAT what's going on?? Is she a part of the problem of all these men and maybe even Daphne? (hide spoiler)]
through 4 chapters / 26%
it was really easy to start again. I love that it jumped right in, too - first chapter started the next case!
(view spoiler)[ hmmm. . .there is a lot of undercurrent here that Andy isn't getting. the lady he went out with tonight - was she really an actress? or somehow tied to. . .money?
and the gang angle - with the martini glasses? that's wild right? what gang would that be and how would they hide themselves and yet they were so open when they picked up these missing friends
and are the three of them really missing together? or something else going on? hmmm (hide spoiler)]

Part One: Features a heartbroken characters
HIF: Libby is heartbroken because Bill has left her
and done
this one just wasn't my jam
(view spoiler)[
i'm glad they protected Christina but I found their story really flimsy and I'm glad the detective went with it but. . . I just did not see Colin putting hands on Lucas. I can't imagine no on in the neighborhood called the cops when the adults fought with children? I didn't buy that either.
there was just too much anger and rage in this one for me. It's getting really hard for me to read things where everyone is just so angry at the world and people and they just feed off the anger
(hide spoiler)]
2 days before Halloween / 76%
(39 chapters)
this book feels like rage bait
(view spoiler)[
*sigh* everyone is so angry these days, I hate reading books where everyone is just angry. it get so tiring. . .and I hate that I feel like this book is just here to make the reader angry. I feel like it's yelling at me to be angry for all the characters being abused.
(hide spoiler)]
One Week Before Halloween / 61%
(30 chapters )
(view spoiler)[ I'm really struggling to get through this one
I'm having a hard time imagining this many terrible people would find each other on one road. No one person is a nice, good person! lol Except maybe. . .Mark?
everyone else is either a victim, an abuser, or just an all around creep
I wondered about Sebastian. he seems just like his dad (hide spoiler)]

Part Seven: features something that isn't real
HIF: mc and her best friend fake a haunting in her house
phew! that was a lot, thank you!!
I'll be starting this one late tonight - I have a few to finish up first
so excited! hoping it's good so far!!
One Month Before Halloween / 45%
(24 chapters)
(view spoiler)[
Audrey - ugh, I was worried it was Colin. but Sebastian seems to know too. I wonder if he is as mean as his dad.
terrible that she cheated with him - why do that to Georgina?
Georgina - ugh, Colin just all around sucks
but if he is the one dead, then this feels a little like Big Little Lies - so I'm hoping this takes a different turn
Hannah - it sounds like she ran from a domestic violence situation where her mom was killed. why is she so nervous about anyone finding out?
Maggie - ugh, she ditched the drugs? She has to know that package is worth money!? and that they will have to pay if they don't deliver. . .
(hide spoiler)]
Six Weeks Before Halloween / 34%
(18 chapters)
(view spoiler)[
Audrey - awww he messed with Seth's car. . . and whi is the affair with? lawn guy? Colin? hmmmm I think it's about to get ugly.
OH NO!! She wasn't sleeping with ONE OF THE KIDS?!?! OH GAH!!!
but Seth and the pills. oooh that can't be good
Libby - ugh, I feel so bad for her but she really has to let Bill go. He's being a jerk, she should let the new girl have him. . .
Hannah - yikes. I wonder what her secrets are. . .hopefully that mail isn't just going to the wrong house.
Maggie - I like that all our POV are women
yuck to Dean. he seems like such a jerk - he got fired over ruining someone's car which he actually did on purpose and he's mad that he lost his job! like dude! you did what you're being fired for!
can't help but wonder - robbing the rich doesn't really work out like Dean thinks lol I wonder if that's he and mike plan to do.
